Ugh, these are Yahoo's "Top Stories" as listed on my email's front page

[Godhumor]

"Obama Introduces Running Mate Biden (AP)"

"Biden's Career Provides Grist for McCain's Mill (AP)"

"Biden Brings Agile Mind, Loose Lips to Ticket (AP)"

"Analysis: Obama's Pick Highlights His Weaknesses (AP)"

"5 Things the Biden Pick Says About Obama (Politico)"

"Obama Must Use Convention to Regain Momentum (AP)"


That's about as slanted of a "Top Stories" page as I have ever seen.

Edit: Wow, talk about timing. The "Analysis: Obama's Pick..." has been removed and replaced with "Analysis: Biden Fills Attack Role (AP)". I can sure pick when to start a new post...

1. Yahoo is always slanted

I've noticed that.

[frogcycle]

4. so is Comcast

they are all whores

[Godhumor]

5. I think it is more of an AP thing, and Yahoo gets its news from them, primarily

But that was about as unsubtle as you can get.

9. Well, I don't think that Yahoo is forced to run AP stories...

Apparently they prefer AP stories, which means they must agree with them, no?

[Muttocracy]

2. but that also means - nothing positive about McBush. nt

[Joe Chi Minh]

3. It's "Alice in Wonderland", topsy-turvy stuff, only the most unprincipled

individuals could collude in. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of such creatures in the media.

6. hah! "Biden Brings Agile Mind" things you will never hear about a reublican.

How awesome it that, an agile mind, i for one love it.

7. Notice that 4 of 5 of those are from the AP.

Ron Fournier is their Washington bureau chief--and his favorite pastime is sucking McCain's cock.

[Godhumor]

10. Yeah, like I said in a different post, AP isn't very subtle

The "Analysis: Biden Highlights Obama's Weaknesses" article was posted last night about 10 minutes after the Biden for VP leaked.

8. Obama-Biden-Biden-Obama

8 times either Biden or Obama is mentioned. McCain just once.

We're still dominating the headlines!
